Is behavior determined primarily by situations (external factors) or by dynamic sources within individuals (internal factors)? The type, trait, and psychodynamic models have assumed that actual behavior is determined by latent, stable dispositions, whereas situationists and many social learning theorists have assumed that behavior is determined by situational factors (see Endler and Magnusson, 1976a, 1976b).
